Socialism for the rich, bootstraps for the rest of us. I don't get the impulse to side with the oppressors against the oppressed, be it Maduro or Trump, Guaido and US imperialism.

I agree with that but what you call US imperialism I call standing firm against pos kings and despots in the name of liberal democracy and human rights. Yes they fuck up real bad sometimes but without fighting oppression we'd be all living under Putin or some piece of shit dictator like that.

If all you're doing is tossing idiot fallacies around all day on behalf of one political agenda you're either incredibly stupid or just punching the clock.

Liberal democracy and human rights is the only thing standing in the way of this becoming a permanent slave planet at best, space rubble at worst. The power must be with the individual living under the rule of law. No exceptions.

Anything other than the rule of law and you're tossing idiot human into the mix and obviously, looking at history, that's sometimes good and sometimes really bad. The stakes are a lot higher now than they were then.
